[Bug 1314213] Re: External DP1 monitor extremely unstable since upgrade to 14.04

 

I have tried to install linux-image-3.15.0-031500rc3-generic following
this guide: http://linuxg.net/how-to-install-kernel-3-15-rc-3-on-ubuntu-
linux-mint-and-their-derivative-systems/ and I don't see the
"[drm:intel_dp_i2c_aux_ch] *ERROR* too many retries, giving up" messages
anymore, however the stability issue persists. If I try to run xrandr
while the external DP monitor is in use, it either immediately reverts
to the laptop screen or it crashes the system. In the case it did not
crash the system, but rather reverted to the laptop screen, the
following output was found in dmesg:

Title:
  External DP1 monitor extremely unstable since upgrade to 14.04

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Since upgrade to 14.04, the external display on DP1 is extremely
  unstable. I get constant "[drm:intel_dp_i2c_aux_ch] *ERROR* too many
  retries, giving up" messages over dmesg. I used to get those with
  13.10, but there was no stability issue. Once the laptop (Lenovo X220)
  is connected to the monitor (resolution is 2560x1600), if I run any
  program like xrandr or unity-control-center, the system immediately
  reverts from the external display to the laptop display, and often
  crashes becoming unresponsive. Every time I run xrandr or unity-
  control-center, it triggers 20 "[drm:intel_dp_i2c_aux_ch] *ERROR* too
  many retries, giving up" messages in dmesg and if I am using the
  external monitor it further triggers a reproducible crash. It is
  possible that this might be related to the DVI->DP adapter I am using.
  Due to an unresolved bug, the correct EDID for the monitor is not
  recognized, and I have to manually add that after each boot.
